Got a short test in last week on a quiet bit of road at a secret location, It started and ran ok, but once moving it was clear that it is only running properly at part throttle. Back at base and a bit more research and it looks like i have some ports on the carb blocked or unblocked since i removed the
air valve gizmo.
The large port on top of diaphragm cap needs to be blanked so that vacuum from inside carb body can open the slide. I had it open. The port on right hand side of carb is actually a vent for the float chamber so needs to be open. I had it blocked.
The metal pipe elbow from the top of carb body needs to be open as this vents the space below vac diaphragm to allow slide movement, i had that blocked too.
Should be better now. Hope to get another test in later this week.
I have ordered an R6 Master cylinder for front brake and some new EBC track pads. The Master cylinder is 16mm where the old one is 13mm i think.
